[+X RAY 83]

the configuration for my mew pc is setted up but I really don't know wich processor will be better despite of core numbers.

video card choice is for a sli 2Xnvidia 9600gt or 512 mb

3 gb ram

motherboard p5 series asus

Hd wd raptor 10000 rpm

and I must choose or a intel dual core E8400 3ghz or a core 2 quad E6700 2.66 ghz but with 8mb of cache/core

Do you have suggestions????

I went for the E8400 on the new PC that I picked up from the local PC store late last week and had a blast with it over the weekend. Recommended!
